According to Mr. Doan Van Yen, the 2013 Land Law has been in effect for nearly 10 years, contributing significantly to the country's socio-economic development, improving the effectiveness of state management of residential land; consistently affirming the regime of public ownership of land, ensuring the legitimate rights and interests of people and domestic and foreign organizations.
In this amendment, many contents of the Law are proposed to be amended related to regulations on planning, land use plans; land recovery and compensation, support and resettlement policies; land fund development; land allocation, land lease, land use purpose conversion; or regulations on land registration, granting of certificates and administrative procedures, land data and information; financial mechanisms and policies, land prices, etc.
Regarding the provisions on land recovery and compensation, support and resettlement policies, I agree with the amendments as stated in Chapter VI and Chapter VII of the Draft Law. Accordingly, the Draft Law has specifically stipulated cases where the State recovers land for socio-economic development for national and public interests and clearly defined the content of socio-economic development projects for national and public interests.
At the same time, more specific regulations on compensation, support and resettlement policies should be made so that after land recovery, people whose land is recovered must have a place to live, ensuring a life equal to or better than their old place of residence; effectively implement vocational training, create jobs, reorganize production, and stabilize the lives of people whose land is recovered.
I also agree that in order to ensure the healthy, safe and sustainable development of the real estate market, the draft Law in Chapter X has added provisions to clearly define the responsibilities of State agencies in completing land registration for all land plots, and to enhance the responsibilities of land users through specific regulations on the rights and obligations of land users and those assigned land management.
After reading many comments on the amendment of the Land Law in the press, I agree with the opinions of many people regarding the issue of land recovery in the draft law. Accordingly, the draft of the second amended Land Law stipulates the content of land recovery and land requisition in Chapter VI. However, the content is only in the direction of listing, without specific criteria, therefore, it is necessary to specifically define what is land recovery for national defense and security purposes; land recovery for socio-economic development.
Along with that, regarding the time limit for land reclamation notification in Article 83 of the draft, it is necessary to add regulations on the validity of the notification, because in reality, many projects have announced reclamation for more or less 10 years but no agency has carried out the reclamation, causing people to always live in confusion, seriously affecting their daily lives.
